I've always run RL-19 in 243 and 30-06. I'm running low and can't seem to find it available. What is a good replacement? I see that Ramshot Hunter has about the same burn rate?

H4831SC replaces RL19. IMR4350 or H4350 also works well in 30-06 and 243.

I’ve only used Hunter in a 280 with 140’s and it shoots really well.

If anyone has any of this stuff laying around, it's a great substitute for RL19: ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/XSxyjsG.jpg) A buddy in Reno sold me this 8 pounder for $200.00, a few months ago. I've burned a bunch of this stuff in my 300wm's and 338wm's when I was younger. Seems every time I saw RL19 listed, I also saw AA3100, right next to it.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA
